Reserve a Spot to Try Chick-Fil-A's Newest Menu Item on the House

What's better than a warm biscuit topped with spicy breaded chicken?

Chick-fil-A Spicy Chicken BiscuitWhat's better than a warm biscuit topped with spicy breaded chicken? Getting it totally gratis. In the New Year, drive-thru poultry king Chick-fil-A hopes to join in on the fast food breakfast wars with a biscuit sandwich filled with amped-up breaded chicken.

Starting today, you can make a reservation to try one for free by signing up on the event website. The $2.25 item won't be added to the Atlanta-based chain's menu until Monday, Jan. 10, 2011, but choose your preferred location and time, and you'll be given a chance to take an early look at the sandwich from Jan. 3 to Jan. 8.

It'll be interesting to how well this product fares against a rather similar one at Wendy's, and whether it helps Chick-fil-A gain a piece of the ever-competitive breakfast market. If you have a chance to preview the item, let us know what you think!

Sometimes — especially during the holidays — a party comes together at the last minute.
Quick and Easy Cheese Appetizer Ideas

Sometimes — especially during the holidays — a party comes together at the last minute. When this happens, it's nice to have a couple of impromptu appetizer recipes. Since I always have several types of cheese on hand, I've rounded up eight of my favorite cheesy apps. Although these recipes are quick and easy (and involve few ingredients), they are flavorful and scrumptious. I'd feel proud serving them at one of my events!

Meatless, Moneysaving Monday: Zucchini and Olive Pizza

Hoping to still make it a Meatless Monday over the holidays?

Hoping to still make it a Meatless Monday over the holidays? For some inspiration, check out what OnSugar blog Cooking in Pajamas is making: zucchini and olive pizza.

Yum! Homemade pizza! If you are starting with ready-made dough (and why wouldn't you?), it is quicker, healthier, cheaper and tastier to make your own. It is . . . really! Even if your favorite pizza is a standard variety tomato sauce and mozzarella cheese, a homemade version really is delicious. Plus, you don't have to go out to get it.

For her recipe — which would taste equally great with seasonal vegetables like eggplant — keep on reading.
